fix(new-file): sync combobox is-open for Work Create keyboard E2E

[Fooftilly]

Summary

Stacked tip (Work Create + parent #226 Group warm/arm). Tip 242a8a3 = 009e90d + combobox commits.

Base temporarily master so required gates (Full E2E) run — workflows only fire for pull_request → master. After green: retarget base back to cursor/tab-group-sync-state-intercept-3498, merge this PR into the parent branch, then merge #226 → master.

Work Create keyboard E2E races: prksShowInlineComboboxResults deferred is-open to rAF → Enter/ArrowDown no-ops (including __e2eReleaseTag on #226 Full E2E 36237241752 shard 2/4). Group targets on that run stayed green; #226 did not regress combobox.

Fix (Work Create commits only)

1. Set is-open synchronously after forced reflow.
2. E2E: wait for .is-open before keyboard (folder / person / tag).
3. Static + Node DOM contract for sync open.

Parent #226 commits (warm/arm + 304) are included in this tip because of the stack; they land via #226 → master after this merges into the parent branch.

Coordination

• Do not merge this PR directly to master while it carries the stack (merge into test(e2e): warm group sync-state before save intercept hold #226 parent first).
• No empty tip-clear; no timeout inflation.

  

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes
  • Autocomplete results panels now enter the open state synchronously when results appear, so newly displayed rows are available for interaction immediately.
  • Keyboard selection of folder, person, and tag quick-create results now waits until the autocomplete panel is open, helping ensure the intended result can be selected. This makes keyboard interactions more reliable while results are appearing.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

prksShowInlineComboboxResults now applies the results panel’s open class synchronously after forcing reflow. A regression test checks this timing and the synchronous visibility update. Three end-to-end tests wait for results within an open panel.

Changes

Inline combobox open state

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Apply the open state synchronously frontend/js/ui.js, tests/test_frontend_work_create.py	The function forces reflow and reapplies is-open in the current turn. A regression test checks that the class is set and hidden is cleared synchronously, without deferred execution.
Wait for open results in end-to-end tests tests/e2e/test_app.py	Three tests wait for folder, person, or tag results inside an .is-open panel before keyboard selection or proceeding.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Change: Bug fix

Suggested reviewers: cursoragent

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to ca26e

The combobox opens synchronously, and the updated tests check its open state before keyboard selection. No actionable merge risk remains in the supplied evidence.

Synchronize inline combobox keyboard readiness

🐞 Bug fix 🧪 Tests 🕐 10-20 Minutes

AI Description

• Apply the combobox open state synchronously when result rows become available.
• Prevent keyboard selection from racing folder, person, and tag result rendering.
• Harden Work Create E2E coverage and enforce synchronous opening statically.

High-Level Assessment

The following are alternative approaches to this PR:

1. Separate readiness marker

• ➕ Preserves requestAnimationFrame scheduling for the visual transition.
• ➕ Separates keyboard readiness from animation state.
• ➖ Introduces a second panel state that must remain synchronized.
• ➖ Requires keyboard handlers and tests to understand the additional marker.

2. Infer readiness from rendered rows

• ➕ Allows keyboard input immediately when selectable rows exist.
• ➕ Avoids changing transition scheduling.
• ➖ Couples interaction readiness to DOM visibility details.
• ➖ Can accept input while the panel still reports itself closed.

Recommendation: Keep the PR’s synchronous is-open update. It preserves the forced-reflow transition while maintaining one authoritative state for visibility, keyboard handling, and test synchronization; alternative state markers or visibility inference add unnecessary complexity.

Open inline combobox panels synchronously

• Applies 'is-open' immediately after the forced reflow instead of deferring it through 'requestAnimationFrame'. Result visibility and keyboard readiness therefore become consistent within the same event-loop turn.

Wait for keyboard-ready Work Create results

• Updates folder, person, and tag keyboard workflows to require an open result panel before pressing selection keys. This prevents Playwright from acting on rows that are present but not yet considered interactive.

Enforce synchronous combobox opening contract

• Adds a static regression test requiring direct 'is-open' application after the forced reflow and prohibiting 'requestAnimationFrame' within the show-results function.
